If you’re planning a vacation to Curacao, a delightful stay at a resort is a must. Immerse yourself in luxury, and there’s no doubt you’ll forget all about your busy life. A luxury resort in Curacao often features a private beach, a gym for your morning workout, and one or more swimming pools. Opt for a room with a sea view, order a tasty cocktail, lounge on a beach chair, and your vacation will be perfect.
Tip: It can be super fun to stay in both a resort and a small boutique hotel during your vacation in Curacao. For example, spend the first few nights at one of these 5 beautiful boutique hotels and the last nights at a luxury beachfront resort. That way, you get the best of both worlds.
Coral Estate Luxury Resort

The resort boasts an amazing infinity pool with a view of the azure Caribbean Sea. Next to the resort, you’ll find Karakter, a cozy beach club with delicious cocktails and tasty snacks. Choose a comfortable spot by the water and indulge in all the delights that Curacao’s cuisine has to offer while taking refreshing dips. Here, you’ll certainly get that pure vacation feeling you came to Curacao for.

Kontiki Beach Resort
Location: Mambo Beach
Kontiki is undoubtedly the winner when it comes to looks. The resort is filled with palm trees, and natural materials have been extensively used in its design. There’s a stunning tropical pool, and you’ll stay in an idyllic bungalow. A true paradise! Kontiki Resort is located at the vibrant Mambo Beach, and Cabana Beach club, one of our favorite beach clubs in Curacao, is nearby. Additionally, it’s only a 10-minute drive to the center of Willemstad, so the location is top-notch as well.

A stay at Avila Beach Resort means maximum enjoyment. This resort is located in the trendy Pietermaai district in Willemstad, with plenty of attractions, cozy bars, and good restaurants within walking distance. Avila has a gym for your morning workout, 2 restaurants (where they serve a very good breakfast buffet in the morning), and not one but two private beaches on the resort! Both beaches are situated in a bay, so the water is calm and serene. Don’t forget to bring your snorkeling gear because just outside Avila’s bay is, from what we’ve seen, Curacao’s most beautiful snorkeling reef. Here, you’ll see coral in all colors and many different types of fish.
